Dear paul, I do not know where Barney is getting his information. I am the Sales Manager at Contact Systems, and we are not going out of business as Barney seems to think. We are alive and well with exciting and new products being introduced at the A

TL IPS: I am having problems replying to you directly. Here is the info on the X-ray machine in question. We definitely need to replace the tube and controller. We are not "hell bent" on a Hamamatsu replacement. If you have something else availa
